@@macwaxxstacks Coach is such an underrated character. People forget about him because Woody Harrellson (who graduated from a Cincinnati HS) did such a phenomenal job replacing him. Cheers is legit in my Top 5 most favorite shows.

@@wax_nostalgic You hit the nail on the head on all of those! Those Texas Gold cards are awesome, that back is amazingly plain (haha) and the Roy Face business card is incredible. Makes me want to track down more of them. Thanks for watching and joining in the conversation.

@@timstahl989 I love that you are collecting with your son! The dime and quarter boxes (and nickel and penny boxes) are where the real fun happens. Like a treasure hunt! Part will definitely be coming a little later. Thanks for watching!

@@zachandporter I noticed some of my favorite cards sitting around, and then it dawned on me to make the video since people do ask from time-to-time what my best/favorite finds were. The Hatcher Big Glove in a Penny box was thrilling! And getting that Bo Supplemental for a $1 is a huge get.

True story, when I pulled that out of a dime box several years ago, I had no idea the promo cards existed. I was getting frustrated because everything I saw with him had a different card number for him. I was so confused before finally finding it on TCDB. Haha

I like to live on the edge and handle some cards without penny sleeves. Haha. You are exactly right on the Dell stamp, I blanked on the name in the video. I am not only aware of Phil Garner’s nickname, but I’ve met him a few times and interviewed him since he’s Knoxville (Bearden HS). He was shorter than I expected. And thank you for the phone number info on the business card. I’ve been trying to narrow down a year, but just haven’t been able to. Truly a unique and cool find. One that tells some history of the sport as well.

I'm stoked for the Parker auto!

That was a nice pickup. I'm slowly working on those Foot Locker sets.

Dead on. You can literally make an entire roster with guys who played for the Reds who grew up in Cincinnati. I know, I've created the roster. Haha

You are correct, as usual, on the Bowman being a 1955. And I'm extremely pleased to get in for the price I did with the shape it's in. I'm chipping away at the True Value set. And I'm hoping to be at the UC-Miami game. I can get tickets, but it all depends on what is going on that weekend with my girlfriend.

@@tigers727 It honestly is the best way to trade. So easy and so fast. I know when life gets busy it can be a bit much, that’s why I love the option to turn trading off when you feel like it. Thanks for watching, and good luck with some trades! Maybe we will have some good stuff match up at some point.

@@themediamarauder1582 I went looking for a Parker auto, and when I saw there was a card with his HIGH SCHOOL uniform on it, I had to have it. Some fun stuff in here. Thanks for watching!

@@macwaxxstacks I did! I was able to answer 2 questions all on my own… the career leader in Wins by a lefthander (Spahn). And what song was used in a specific scene in a movie - the bus scene from the movie Almost Famous (Tiny Dancer). And then I helped out on some other questions. We did pretty good overall. It was great meeting you. At some point we need to do an actual video together when time avails itself.

The 1984 Yogi is from the 2012 Topps Archives set. It is legit awesome. I loved it the second I saw it. Larkin is a great guy to PC. I'm going to start adding all of his cards to my TCDB page soon so I can figure out what exactly of his I have. And the Eastgate show is highly underrated, most of the time. Worth the drive. My only ask is if you see some weird oddballs, you let me know. haha

@@dimeboxdiscoveries Will do! 😅

@@joepiechota6747 Thank you for the kind words. Honestly, I’m a pretty excitable and upbeat kind of guy. And when I find cool cards, oh man, let’s get excited. Lol. Don’t be afraid to let your excitement shine in your videos. Never fake it, people can hear it, but don’t hold back when you find something that really brings you joy. It’s not really a secret, but I truly record the videos for myself, and if anyone else watches and joins in, that’s so much cooler.

@@diverdave2179 Murphy in a Phillies uniform is weird. Murphy in a Rockies uniform is just plain wrong. Haha. And every time I think of Steve Avery I think of his First Round Draft pick card in 1989 Topps.

Good catch on the Avery, must be reverse negative. I assume it wouldn’t have been corrected. And as a part time Phillies fan, I’m very used to seeing Murphy as a Phillie.

@@joepiechota6747Every time I see Murphy in a Phillies uniform I think of the 1991 (was it 91) Donruss card with him and Dukstra on it that was titled Dr. Dirt and Mr. Clean. And he had an EXCEPTIONAL eye to catch that about the Avery card. I clearly didn’t. Haha

@@diverdave2179 By the way, the Avery card on TCDB is listed as an UER. So it is a known mistake, but I never would have caught that.

@@dimeboxdiscoveries I had never seen that Avery card before,thanks for the UER info. Braves fan here, so I knew he was a lefty, just had to jog the old memory (thanks Google :) ).

@@pats620 Thank you! This is one that I put a lot of time, and thankfully, not a ton of money, into. Most of the more expensive cards I bought before the pandemic. There are a few I want to upgrade, but over I’m extremely pleased. Maybe one day I’ll literally write the book on Topps All-Star Rookie team cards. Thanks for watching and joining in the conversation!

@@PennySleeveSteve Thanks man! A couple fun boxes to dig through if you like 90s/00s, which I do.

@@zachandporter it is sooooo easy to make quick deals on there. Best place. Plus, your collection is in your hand.

@@victornegroncards It definitely was heavy on 90s and 2000s guys this time. The guy I bought from said he worked at a baseball card shop at that time, and it shows.

So do I! What an amazing pic.

You got HALF of what I was looking for. Yes, they were indeed all drafted number 1 overall, AND they are all in the Hall of Fame. The only 4 to do so.

@@dimeboxdiscoveries Ah, I missed that :). I wasn't sure about Baines, had to google it.

@@diverdave2179 Credit to you for being on that first part. You were correct. And now it’s a fact you will remember. You can use it during a trivia night, to impress your friends, or never need that information again. Haha

You are right! And of course, the newest member, Joe Mauer is from St. Paul, Minnesota and only played for the Twins. I can’t believe I forgot that one. Very cool.

Randy! Great to hear from you! Good eye on the Jeffries. I was wondering who was paying attention. And it really is a good book and a quick read. You are correct on the 1964 football. It’s weird that I’ve never seen one before, although I mostly dig around in quarter and lower boxes. Haha. The Schmidt was a great add as I fill out that set. It’s from the monthly Eastgate Mall show on the east side of Cincinnati. A good show if you have time to hit it up! I have a few cards for you that I need to get in the mail.

@@ripemall4548 Thanks for joining in on the conversation! Happy to have you here. I try to explain to younger people the impact of the Original Dream Team. They’re always like “NBA players in the Olympics, yeah, like this year”. They don’t get it. Although, this year’s Olympic basketball had a lot of fun games. But that original team really marks a moment in time.

@@zachandporter I thought you guys might need that LuBob. I’ll try to pull it aside for you. And that quarter box/3 for a dollar box was loaded! At least for what I was looking for.

@@chrischeatle6623 I’m lucky. MOST of the shows I go to have at least one guy with a dime box or two. Partly because I only go to the shows that mostly have them. The nickel box was a new guy. His first show setting up and just wanted to liquidate some stuff. I was happy to oblige. If you go back in my videos to November and December you can find some penny boxes! Thanks for watching, and I’ll say some prayers to the patron Saint of baseball cards to deliver you some dime and quarter boxes. We all deserve those.

@@joseromero9933 Thanks! Happy to have you. Feel free to join in on the conversation at anytime.

I’m out of town. When I get back in we can work something out I’m sure. I haven’t put them on TCDB for trade yet.

Hey Tim. Do you have a TCDB account for trading cards? If not, you can reach out to me at dimeboxdiscoveries@gmail.com. I could send you a link to my want list to see if you have anything that would make a fun trade for some of those Harpers.

@@wax_nostalgic Awesome! Thanks for joining in the conversation! If you like Reds stuff then you’re in the right place since I pick up a fair amount of it. And it’s easy to get excited about some fun pickups.

@@dimeboxdiscoveries So true! Definitely glad I found your channel!

@@diverdave2179 It’s a long story, but basically I found a guy on TCD who lives in Vienna, Austria, which I was set to visit. Reached out to him and we made a trade with a few hundred cards I travelled with to give to him.

@@diverdave2179 Right?! Like, I’ve never seen that Mrs. Buttersworth card before. Which of course means I HAD to have it. And great call on the Feller. Just such a clean nice pic of a great pitcher who often gets overlooked. And his really good teammate Bob Lemon REALLY gets no love.

​@@dimeboxdiscoveries Agreed about Bob Lemon,a lesser known Hall of Famer.

@@diverdave2179 On the plus side for me, he’s a good one to use on Immaculate Grids.

@@joepiechota6747 If you’re buying for value, absolutely. Both are cooked. But these are Topps All-Star trophy cup cards so I picked them up for a nickel in case these are variations that I needed. I think I already had that chrome Lewis, but for a nickel, it never hurts to have a second one.

@@scottflint4916 I heard people like it when others say their name. Just trying to bring you joy.

@@macwaxxstacks No doubt! I went in expecting to find some junk wax commons, hoping to find some local guys or some fun stuff. Not actual stars. And that quarter box was loaded with stuff just for me.

@@macwaxxstacks Lol. But it seriously is a good book, even if you just read the last half of it picking up with the stuff in the mid-80s.

@@kirkt.1596 I love the Olympic baseball cards. You’re not finding anything unaffordable here. Haha. I think the most expensive card I’ve ever shown was $120. After that I think it was $60. But mostly dimes, quarters and below. All about the fun! Thanks for watching.

@@zachandporter You HAD to tune in to see those gold shoes run. And before him we had Carl Lewis. People who weren’t around then can’t understand how hype we were to watch those two run. And the Nomar was gifted to me from a friend in the complete traded set. And by gifted, I mean tossed in after I spent $60 on dime cards. Haha

Haha. These did not come out of a dime box. I've had them since they came out 32 years ago.

So $2?

That card is an excellent example of a picture is worth a thousand words. The dominance, the ease. Definitely a great card.

As my guy BK pointed out, those two are also not in the Starting Lineup Dream Team box sets. Those were awesome. And you definitely need to add them to your collection. Unfortunately you will probably not find them in a dime box, as I haver never come across them before. They general go between $4-$10 per card. But totally worth it.

You are correct! Talk about a missed opportunity. They got the McGwire rookie in there, but missed out on the Will Clark and Barry Larkin. Both were already stars in college. Anyway, congratulations. Shoot me an email at - dimeboxdiscoveries @ gmail.com. In the email give me a few players/teams you collect and your address and I'll send you out some cards. Some you may have, and hopefully most that you don't. Any sport works, but I have more baseball than anything else. Although I do have a lot of football as well.

@@macwaxxstacks that’s right! They weren’t in that box set. That box set was AWESOME!

@@dimeboxdiscoveries Wow, sorry about all of the typos in the previous comment. I edited it so I didn’t look like a crazy man. Talk to text is not the answer sometimes!

Those cards were massive when they came out. And even now they go for a few bucks. That team was a moment in time that if you didn't live it, you can't understand the hype around it.

@@tyrannicaltypomichaeltester Thank you. That took a lot of years and a lot digging to complete.

@@mojogogo1773 Thank you for watching!

@@markcornish2519 There are quite a few players over the years that made the Topps All-Star Rookie team that Topps didn’t put a trophy on their card. I can’t find a good reason why. I need to research it more. But here is the CRAZY thing… there are two guys who have trophies on their cards that are not officially listed on the Topps All-Star Rookie teams. Now THAT is a true mystery.

@@dimeboxdiscoveries yeah I sent that early, then noticed the others missing later

@@markcornish2519 It’s all good. And I’m glad you noticed. Those are the kinds of quirks all collectors should be noticing. You have a quick eye!
